Solid Oak Sketches, LLC v. 2K Games, Inc., No. l 6 Civ. 724 (LTS) (SDA)

Dear Judge Swain:
We represent Defendants-Counterclaimants 2K Games, Inc. and Take-Two Interactive
Software, Inc. (collectively "Take-Two") in the above-referenced litigation. On September 21,
2018, the Court granted Take-Two's motion to stay pre-trial proceedings (Dkt. 125) until the
Court rules on Take-Two's pending motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 127). See Dkt. 145 (the
"Stay Order"). Pursuant to the Stay Order, the pre-trial conference in this case was adjourned
from December 7, 2018 to a control date of May 9, 2019. The Court has adjourned the pre-trial
conference twice since the original Stay Order, with the current control date for January 24,
2020. See Dkt. 159. As a result, the deadline by which the parties are required to begin filing
pre-trial documents currently is December 23, 2019.
As this case is still stayed and in the interest of judicial economy, the parties respectfully
and jointly request that the control date and all associated pre-trial deadlines be further adjourned
until such time as Take-Two's summary judgment motion is decided. Pursuant to your Honor's
Individual Practice 1(F), Take-Two conferred with Plaintiff-Counterdefcndant Solid Oak
Sketches, LLC ("Solid Oak"), and Solid Oak consents to this extension.
